119 Killing the Undead Pries (2/2)

Edward looked around, then shouted: ”Hail endurance!”

Afterwards, he started maniacally laughing while dishing out nonsense after nonsense. Though he knew that it was to ”magically” increase the purity of his energy, hearing it was still unbearable. Even if he was tempted to try if spouting nonsense could really make your skills powerful, Jun managed to stop himself. Just thinking about the reactions of other people when they learned about it would make him die from embarrassment.

Jun observed the overall situation and managed to confirm that everything was connected to those weird summons. He quickly swapped weapons and brought out his white revolver.

”Take care of them, can you do that?” Jun said without looking back and immediately aimed at the distant carriers. The nearest one was ten meters away and he quickly shot it. Since he was recovering energy, he refrained from using Time Perse to aim, but used Enhanced Sight to get a closer view. Well, he learned today that a closer view doesn't mean correct aim.

The shot hit the weird carriers body and it wailed loudly while crazily rolling on the ground. He noticed that two of the masked men recovered from their daze. At the same time, the others finally fought back against the carriers which lightened Edward's energy consumption.

”What happened?” said Jun towards the two, who were busy assessing the situation. The one who answered was the second most strongest slave he had.

”I think we got trapped inside an illusion.” the voice sounded old and withered but still dutifully replied. The man looked around and hurriedly ran towards Nik.

Nik on the other hand was surprised and jumped back to avoid the man. The man stopped and distanced himself from Nik, but stayed near enough to be able to protect him.

Jun pondered about the new information and finally confirmed that it was really those creatures doing. After thinking about it, everyone's stat build centered around strength, speed and wits. It might be true that having high endurance gives resistance to illusions and maybe also gives resistances to various debuffs.

Since there were more people to defend the others, Jun decided to go on the offensive. He doesn't know what the others were experiencing but he won't wait for things to get worse before taking action.

Jun hurriedly ran towards the weird chanting carriers. When Jun approached them, they ran away from him and so he decided to aim from afar. They never left a certain distance from their targets, which made it easy for Jun to aim accurately this time. He shot two in the head while the rest were in their chests. He then finished them off by bashing their heads while cursing them under the heavens.

He looked back to his group and ensured that everyone was awakened. When he verified that they already did, he noticed that the priest on the sermon podium started chanting once again.

Jun tilted his head and cursed under his breath.

”Not again.”

He ran as fast as he could and when he was about fifty meters away, he activated Time Perse and stopped the time. The priest's mouth was still open while Jun was already on his aiming position. He still had thirty percent energy, so he wasn't scared of energy exhaustion.

He zoomed in and steadied his aim, on top of Enhanced Sight, everything appeared like it was meters away from him. He could even see the priest thick eyebrows and its yellow eyes that stared at him lifelessly. A golden tooth reflected the sun's ray causing a slight sparkle, but it didn't hinder Jun's aim.

The shot was fired and Jun quickly cancelled Time Perse. With his energy right now, he couldn't afford the energy drain of a bullet moving on a stopped time.

The bullet flew straight towards the nose and came out behind the head.

Jun said with disappointment, ”I was aiming at the mouth.”
